I'd guess the number of pages Trump has read his entire time in office is in the hundreds at best. That's considering Donnie likes one pagers filled with bullet points that he can quickly scan during his daily briefings. He probably didn't even read those and relied on someone briefing him. Given his loose lips, a lot of highly sensitive stuff probably got filtered without him knowing (or caring).

The guy is a serial liar. Anything he says is probably not true, especially if it's about himself. I'd be very hesitant taking anything this guy says seriously.

Not to say things won't leak. It will probably be stuff that embarrasses people he doesn't like or to get back at people he feels have treated him bad. Maybe the UFO folks will get something, who knows?

Either way, whatever happens to Donnie after January 20th, I'm sure there will be no serious prosecution or consequences. It's been that way for Republicans for decades. Rules are made for the other guys/gals. Strength is defined as imposing your rules on other folks and making exceptions for your tribe.
